Letter of Competence

What is competence? As defined in the European Training

Strategy (Salto Youth 2013)���

“Competences consist of an overall system of values, attitudes and beliefs as well as skills and knowledge, which can be put into practice to manage diverse complex situations and tasks successfully. Self-confidence, motivation and well-being are important pre-requisites for a person to be able to act out his/her developed competences.“���

What is competence? As defined in the EQF (European

Qualification Framework)���

“Competence means the proven ability to use knowledge, skills and personal,

social and/or methodological abilities in work or study situations and in

professional and personal development. ���

In the context of the EQF, competence is described in terms of responsibility and

autonomy.”���

���Work together���

���Today, young people’s learning takes place in many different sectors. ���Open Badges is a system for connecting different learning settings and create pathways to jobs. ���

“Further work is also necessary to analyse how new transparency tools such as ‘open badges’ created by new certification processes on digital learning should be integrated in/a complement to Europass.”���
